Okay I went shopping at a couple different Walmarts yesterday. I found a couple of different desk type calendars marked down from like $5 down to $1.50 to $2.50 at the first WalMart (Smithfield, NC) true the calendars were good from August of 2009 till July of 2010 but I figure I can use white out to use the 2009 pages for this year instead of throwing them out
The Biggest score was finding a 18 month desk type Calendar for ONLY 2 CENTS I thought that it was a mistake but I had the guy in the electronics area scan it for me and YEP YEP it was only 2 whole Pennies I now have (2) of the desk type calendars on the wall next to my computer desk now (one for trains/auctions/RAOKs etc I've received and one for Envies/RAOKS/Trains I've Sent out
I found a couple different Wallets marked down from $5 to just A DOLLAR (insert picture of me drooling) Sorry Wallets are my weakness In the jewelry part, I found these ADORABLE Lionel Train keychains (both the picture insert kind of keychains and soft rubber Oooohhh soooo cute Teddy Bear Conductor Keychains for just a QUARTER Each!!) and Marked down jewelry.
I was passing out business cards about WUC and pretty soon I was out of the dozen or so business cards I'd brought with me. So I started writing on spare pieces of paper and even gave one worker the WUC web addy on a scrap piece of cardboard from the box she was stocking toothpaste out of
I was leaving WalMart and was returning the cart to the corral things in the parking lot when I spotted an aluminum can in the parking lot already crushed. I snatched it up and was sorta laughing when I said it was money not trash to an older lady who was walking past me. She laughed said she agreed about that and I went on to start telling her about WUC and how I was saving money using more coupons and trading and riding coupon trains.
That's when I gave her the business card with WUC addy and she dropped a bomb on me Saying she had been saving aluminum cans at her house since her son (I think) had been 12 and he was now about 20 some years old. And she asked me if I wanted them! I said I sure would go out to her home and pick up the aluminum cans from her house I have no ideal if its 4 bags of cans or if its an entire garage full of cans I just know that they're free to me
I've got her home address and her cell number, I'll call her today and see when is a good time to come by and pick up the aluminum cans. I'll be going straight from her home to the recycling center
I thought we were through talking and she started to walk off towards her Cadillac when she turned back around and asked if me, my sister, and our friend Heather wanted some clothes she was gonna take to the Salvation Army. We said sure and went over to her Caddy and she proceeded to give us a bunch of clothes. The day had started off pretty crappy for Heather because she had a blow out early that morning but she ended up with at least half a dozen different pieces of clothes for work including a LAMBSKIN Leather Jacket!!!
Mrs Massengil was just a REALLY Cool older lady that I never would have met if it wasn't for WUC So THANK YOU for making this Website
